So apparently the Poke QB fumbled in victory formation

[badger]

And Troy recovered the fumble, getting the ball back with less than a minute left in the game. :stunned:

The Pokes ended up winning by 3, but OP.com has this amusing little thread going over there now.

Enjoy :D

In case you're thinking the Pokes might have imagined such an epic fail, here is the media report:


With 54 seconds left, the Cowboys lined up in victory formation. It’s the simplest play in football - the quarterback takes the snap, touches his knee to the turf and watches the clock roll.

However, in a game replete with oddities and spectacular mistakes, nothing was simple. Cowboy quarterback Brandon Weeden, playing with a sprained right thumb, fumbled the snap. Troy linebacker Daniel Sheffield recovered at the Trojan 34-yard line. Troy was only 30 yards shy of reasonable field-goal range.

As I have said before, aggie jokes are have a factual basis to them . . .

Gotta admit that was a pretty damn funny thread

[badger]

:D poke is as poke does.

I liked this Gem by Poke04 ;)

I mean seriously ... only OSU could blow a victory formation

[BoulderSooner79]

They just don't practice the victory formation that much.

I was listening to the game on the radio while driving home from Norman. Just about to nod off and Hunziker says "we're going into victory formation!" Just moments earlier, he and the color commentator were trying to figure out if it was TIME for victory formation. Anyway, the fumble and I just busted out laughing. Stayed awake the rest of the drive home.

[CarolinaSoonerFan]

That was great

[MichiganSooner]

As a team always on the rise, the guys don't get the opportunity to use it. Why waste practice time on something you'll rarely use.

[SunnySooner]

There should be at least one poster with a pic of someone being totally unsurprised...it is LosuR, after all, what's so shocking about a fumble--anytime the ball is snapped, that is a distinct and likely possibility.

One of the Funniest threads EVA!!!!

Someone posted the image of Jeremy Shockey celebrating to the camera, then realizing that the Giants lost :D

[texaspokieokie]

several dallas players were celebrating last nite, before reality set in.

[stoopified]

The Pukes could be looking at a lllllooooonnnnngggg season.Tulsa,TT,aTm,Baylor,KU,KSU are all tossup games at best. Nebraska,OU,UT are all losses so I laugh at their predictions of 8-4 or 9-3.

[NOVSooner]

that is some funny stuff right there, can't even see straight through the tears from laughing!

[Piware]

The Pokes are always crying about media bias - hope this one makes their game
highlights. Bwahh ha ha ha!

[stoops the eternal pimp]

you know, I don't know that I've ever seen anybody fumble in victory formation...

[soonervegas]

I'll be honest.....I have fumbled a couple of times in victory formation.

[rawlingsHOH]

you know, I don't know that I've ever seen anybody fumble in victory formation...

Never, the center doesn't even snap the ball full speed and the QB isn't going anywhere. Almost impossible.

If the game was televised, we could have whipped up a new highlight video for them so they don't keep having to show helicopter sammie... alas, Holder and Boone Tang decided that they'd rather force fans to attend overpriced games than televise 'em


whooooooa! Cowboys 4 ever! :rolleyes:

[goingoneight]

Sam fumbled a snap from under center in Stoolwater before. All the OSU fans were laughing, til he picked it up and walked into the endzone with it. :D
